[Comprehensive] IQ knocks on the door
Work related (30)
cancel his doctorate.However, this matter has too much influence and public grievances are too heavy. If it is not dealt with, it may damage the reputation of MIT.The two dilemmas made MIT's upper echelons grey.In the end, a person appeared to save them.
This person claimed to be JasonWhite's senior, who had been arrested for smoking many years ago!Poison was caught by White.Using this as an excuse to deprive him of his carefully prepared thesis, and later use this matter to restrain him and squeeze him many times to let him write academic reports for White.Now he couldn't take it anymore, so he exposed this matter.Immediately, this person also provided relevant evidence to the court and MIT, asking them to give him justice.This matter was uproarious on the Internet.Many people say what kind of teachers really teach what kind of students.The matter of stealing papers is really the same.
Some people criticized MIT and Caltech for being ignorant of people and allowing such scum and scum to run free for so long.This incident caused a lot of trouble, and the public opinion was almost one-sided. The reputations of Jason White and Charlie Lewis were ruined, and I am afraid that they will never have a bright future in this life.
And the other protagonist in this incident, Augustine, was involved innocently at the beginning of the melee, but later, as the online debate intensified, Augustine gradually faded out of people's sight.This puzzled him.
The issue of Charlie Lewis’ theft is okay. After all, it happened recently, and he has no background. The victims are young people. Most of them are outspoken and like to follow suit. It’s not surprising that Charlie Lewis was imprisoned Augustine under the circumstances that the wall is overwhelmed by everyone. .If anything was wrong, the only thing that seemed odd to him was that Charlie Lewis didn't dispose of the stolen goods in time after the incident, for no apparent reason.
But Jason White's theft of the thesis made Augustine feel suspicious. First of all, the timing of the witness's appearance was too coincidental.Why did he suddenly expose his existence after swallowing his anger for many years?Next suck!Although poison is serious, it is really not a heinous thing.How can this one reason alone allow one person to be oppressed by another for so long?The third is that after getting along for more than a year, although Augustine doesn't want to say that, I have to say that Jason White is indeed a person with real talents and a deep passion for chemistry. He has watched many times in the middle of the night The doctor is still doing experiments in the laboratory.It is too absolute and far-fetched for such a person to say that all his achievements have been stolen from others.
I don't know if it's because Augustine is being sentimental. Looking at this incident, I always feel that there is a shadow behind the incident that is leading the direction of public opinion and promoting the development of the incident.Not for anything else, just to vent my anger on Augustine.
Once this guess came out, Augustine couldn't suppress it no matter what, so she could only keep it in her heart temporarily, leaving a question mark to explore it in the future.
As for now?Although he knew that the accusations against White were not all true, he really didn't have the leisure to clear his grievances. Doesn't White like to take credit for other people's work?So now let him feel what it feels like to have his credit taken away by others, this can be regarded as retaliation for retribution.

When the matter came to an end, Augustine didn't feel happy, but felt relieved as if the task had been completed.The phone rang just in time, it was Lee's call.As if estimating the time, Augustine twitched his mouth and picked up the phone.
"Is there something wrong?" Augustine leaned back in the chair, eyes slightly closed and asked casually.
Lee's lazy tone came from the other end of the phone: "Remember? I said before that if you do something for the boss, part of the favor you owe us will be erased?"
"Yeah." Augustine responded, with some resistance in her heart: "When?"
Lee said: "No need. The matter has been resolved." As he spoke, his laughter came from the other end of the phone with a bit of dissatisfaction: "Didling, did you think the boss would wait for you?"
Augustine didn't know what to feel in his heart. On the one hand, he was glad that he escaped a catastrophe, but on the other hand, he didn't know what kind of things that person would use this favor to ask him to do next time if he missed this opportunity.
Lee seemed to guess what Augustine was thinking, and he directly stated his purpose: "This time the boss wants you to go to New York."
"What are you doing there?" Augustine couldn't help asking, her heart skipped a beat.
"Boss was betrayed a few years ago and went to prison. The relevant files are sealed in the archives of the New York Police Department. He needs you to find the files and give them to him." Lee said.
Augustine didn't answer, expressing his reluctance with silence.
Lee didn't mind his attitude, he said: "Just asking you to make a copy of the file and bring it back to teach me, it's not a big deal. Are you willing to do this little favor? You know you did this After that, you and us will be settled."
Although Lee spoke lightly, Augustine also understood what kind of trap was hidden behind these simple words.The person who rescued him in the first place was not a good person. Augustine vaguely felt that this person must have a huge network of connections or even a criminal group behind him, so he didn't want to get involved with them too much, and just wanted to pay back the favor.
Lee said it simply, he just said that the file was placed in the file room of the New York Police Department, but with that person's identity and background, how could the information related to him be stored in such a small file room that was loosely guarded and easy to intrude?Presumably only the archives of the CIA can be worthy of his identity.But the CIA is headquartered in Langley, Virginia, and it seems that it has nothing to do with New York, which makes Augustine wonder what this person's intentions are.In addition, Augustine was planning to leave Pasadena to go to New York to find an "old friend". The time and place coincided with the request made by that person, which made Augustine very frightened. Like a chess piece, no matter what happens, it cannot escape from his palm.
He was silent for a long time, and Lee on the other end of the phone showed enough patience. Finally, Augustine asked, "How can I, an ordinary person, get into the file room of the New York Police Department?"
Lee seemed to have guessed that Augustine would compromise, and laughed softly. Before Augustine got angry, he said: "With your current reputation, you can easily arrange a position for you with a little work. You go to the forensics department for an interview tomorrow." , they know what to do."
"Tomorrow?" Augustine frowned: "Why are you in such a hurry?"
"Based on previous experience, do you think we'll let you dawdle and waste time?" Lee asked back.
Augustine paused, then nodded without emotion: "Got it."
"I hope you can complete the task well this time." With that, Lee hung up the phone.
Augustine sat in a chair for a while, before booking a ticket to New York tonight. In fact, Augustine had nothing to do with that person, and it was okay not to agree to his request.But that person's background was not simple, and a rude refusal might have more serious consequences, Augustine couldn't afford to bet on it.In addition, there was always a voice in his heart urging him to agree to this request.After hesitating again and again, he decided to listen to the voice in his heart.After all, now we can only take one step at a time.
***
The assessment was indeed smooth. Augustine already possessed all the knowledge of forensic pathology. His professional knowledge and on-the-spot coping skills were not weak, and could even be said to be excellent. Therefore, even without that person behind the scenes, Augustine could still do it with High scores enter the forensic department.
So when he got all the relevant documents and was told that he could come to work the next day, Augustine was not surprised at all.After all, the forensics department in the United States is not as beautiful as it is described in the TV series.Let’s not talk about the equipment, just talk about the profession of coroner. Even in the busiest forensic office in the country, the chief forensic department in Washington DC, one of the five forensic doctors has not been certified by the Forensic Pathology Board.It is estimated that there are only 400 to 500 full-time forensic pathologists in the United States, and the annual death toll is about 250 million. In the case of an extreme shortage of forensic personnel, some doctors who fail the examination can still find forensic jobs, so Augustine has nothing to do with it degree and certification from the Board of Forensic Pathology, he still obtained the post of coroner by virtue of his solid knowledge reserve.However, after Augustine successfully applied for the job, his boss still kindly suggested that he should take some time to attend the assessment. Augustine responded mildly and politely, but still felt very disapproving.
In contrast, Augustine may not be able to eat for a while.
At this time, he was looking for a rental room with some luggage.Due to the tight time schedule given by that person, Augustine's schedule was greatly disrupted.He couldn't arrange everything before going to New York, so at this moment, he could only take a bank card and hold a newspaper in his hand to search for a place to stay.Following the information in the newspaper, he took the subway to a building in Brooklyn. He compared the glamorous building in the picture with the building in front of him that had peeled off the outer wall and exuded a strange smell. The corners of his mouth twitched. Without hesitation, he turned and left.
It was evening at this moment, and Augustine was a little tired after walking all day, so he casually walked into a restaurant on the side of the road to have something to eat. Augustine had just opened the door when he heard a scream, he tensed his body reflexively and prepared to attack, but saw a blond woman in khaki rushing into the kitchen with a whoosh. Augustine was taken aback for a moment. At that moment, he felt as if he had seen an old friend, but when he thought about it, he found it ridiculous. The person he knew was a rich girl, and she was enjoying afternoon tea at a coffee shop in Manhattan at the moment. How could it be possible to meet here? to her.
The other waiter in the restaurant also seemed to be frightened. With an exaggerated expression for no reason, she silently asked the old man sitting at the cashier at the door. The latter shrugged incomprehensibly. Stepping forward: "Hi, handsome guy. Who do you want to serve?"
"...What?" Hearing such a sloppy question, Augustine thought he had made a mistake. He looked around to make sure that this was a restaurant, so he received it in passing: "How do you tell the difference?"
The black-haired waiter pointed: "See? The area near the toilet and the cash register is my area, and the area near the bar and the wall is the area where the blonde woman just ran into the kitchen like a mouse... oh, forget it, I'm comforting myself. Don't worry, today is all my service area, wait a minute, it's not just today."
Augustine thought it was quite interesting. He found a seat in front of the cash register and sat down. As a result, the waiter casually handed over the menu, glanced at the sandwiches and burgers on it, and closed the menu without interest: "Give me A cup of black coffee and a sandwich."
"Okay, sandwiches and coffee." The waiter pretended to draw two strokes and suddenly patted the table: "Where do you think this is? Starbucks? We don't have black coffee here, but there are a lot of low-quality spirits. Do you want to come?" A bottle?"
"Bad quality? You're too good at selling." Augustine said with a smile.
The waiter opened his hand holding the pen, and shook it in front of Augustine: "See, is it useful for me to beautify such a place? People know that they have gone to hell as soon as they come in."
"Okay." Augustine laughed happily, which brightened his already handsome features, and he handed the menu to the waiter: "surprise me."
"I wish I could! But my suggestion to surprise you is to advise you not to eat the food here." The waiter was about to leave when he suddenly paused: "Wait, are you that Augustine Jones?"
Augustine was slightly stunned and shook his head. He didn't want to get into trouble, so he just pretended to be helpless and said, "Do I really look like him? I've been mistaken for that Mr. Jones lately, which has made me very uncomfortable recently." An Sheng. Everywhere I go, I am stopped by others."
The waiter nodded understandingly: "Some people always mistook me for Kat Dennings, so brother, I understand how you feel."
Augustine nodded understandingly.
"Max." The waiter introduced.
Augustine said casually: "Reid. Nice to meet you."
Max was really tricked by Augustine. She walked into the kitchen with the menu, looked at the nervous Caroline and said, "What's wrong with you? I didn't run as fast as you when I was chased by other people's wives. I just grabbed her He slapped her hard on the hair, and said to her righteously: 'Hey, ma'am, you didn't take care of your husband, are you okay?'." Max made a slap in the face.
Caroline didn't complain about Max's outlook on life as usual, she hesitated for a while and said, "Max, I saw Austin."

"Austin Reid?" Max waved his hands exaggeratedly: "Is that the guy who started World War II?"
"No, the cause of World War II was..."
"Stop! I know what caused World War II! Now, you tell me what happened between you and Austin Reid that made you avoid it!" Max interrupted Caroline mercilessly.
Caroline reacted belatedly: "What? Austin Reid? What are you talking about, Max!"
"I'm talking about your relationship with the man who scared you like a mouse into the kitchen." Max said impatiently.
"No, that person is Augustine Jones, who is the protagonist in the abduction case and the bone digger case that have been making a lot of noise in the news these days." Caroline said inexplicably, "You browsed his pictures for a while a few days ago. !"
"That bastard!" Max cursed in a low voice, "I really believed his nonsense!" Max slammed his fist on the pizza beside him, his face full of anger.
"Okay." Caroline didn't know what happened but she continued: "Max, I can't see him. Please, don't you like him, get him out!"
"You know what? I have a better idea." With that said, Max poured a full glass of pan water into a porcelain cup, and walked out with an uncooked pizza that had a hole in it.Facing Augustine's surprised gaze, she calmly put the things in her hands on the table, and said with a smile, "Sir, please take your time with the sandwiches and black coffee you ordered."
"..." The corners of Augustine's mouth twitched, and it took a long time to arrive: "Wow, you really surprised me." Even so, he didn't have the desire to do anything, and turned to Max and said, "Excuse me, Have I offended you?"
"No, I just think that the most suitable food for Mr. Austin Reid is naturally the 'sandwich' and 'black coffee' that are inconsistent with his usual words." Max smirked.
Augustine knew that his identity had been exposed when he heard the words, and he was not ashamed or angry: "Sorry, I just don't want to cause trouble."
"Yeah, that face of yours is a black card. Anyone who sees it can't help rushing forward to kneel and lick it." Max mocked.
Augustine frowned slightly. Although he admired women who dared to love and hate, he was limited to watching dramas. If this happened to him, it would be very troublesome: "Well, it seems that I am not welcome here." As he spoke, he took out a hundred-yuan bill and put it on the table: "I'm sorry." Then, he got up and was about to leave.
"Wait!" Caroline rushed out of the kitchen.
Augustine turned around, and when he saw Caroline, his heart skipped a beat, and a bad premonition welled up: "Caroline, why are you here?"
"Well, don't you know? My father went to prison for commercial fraud a year ago, and all my things were confiscated, only the chestnut was left." Caroline was still a little sad when she talked about this incident, but she could already face it correct.
"A year ago?" Augustine hurriedly asked, "When was a year ago?"
Caroline was a little surprised why Augustine kept asking about this, but she still replied, "Well, probably not long after you went to prison. Listen, Austin." Caroline took a deep breath: "I'm very sorry that I was in prison a year ago. Sorry for what I said to you."
Augustine didn't care to listen to what Caroline was saying. After he learned that Martin Channing was in prison, he felt an indescribable sense of absurdity: "Commercial fraud?"
"Yes." Caroline's apology was interrupted. She paused slightly and said, "I didn't expect that my father is a good man. I mean, no matter what others think of him, he is a good man in my heart."
Augustine wasn't distracted to listen to what Caroline was saying, and now his mind was full of the whereabouts of the evidence about Jones' embezzlement of public funds that had been deposited with Channing. Augustine was about to ask, but he soon noticed that this was not a good place to talk, so he suppressed the urgency in his heart and asked, "It's been a long time since Caroline, how about we have dinner together? I still have something to do." I want to ask you. When do you leave work?"
Caroline was overjoyed: "Now." She immediately took off the apron she was wearing.
"Now?" Han walked out of the lounge, frowning: "Our rest time is two o'clock! Two o'clock in the morning! And why don't I remember that you are at work?"
Max said, "Han, go back to your room to sleep now, the adults have to deal with some small things." She also took off the apron on her body.
Caroline came out with her bag and bumped into it, and she said in disbelief, "No, Max! Are you going with me?"
"Please, you're going out on a date with a handsome guy, so you're going to leave me here to rot and grow bacteria?" Max asked back, took his bag and went out.
Max took the two of them to the restaurant.Along the way, she peeked at the two behind her, hoping that they could say something to satisfy her desire to gossip.But the latter two were even more boring than "Change 4", almost didn't even say a word along the way.
Caroline was embarrassed and guilty, so she didn't say a word, while Augustine was flustered and didn't have the mood to greet.
"Please, can't you just say a few words? Don't be more boring than that idiot on the side of the road wearing a zombie costume to attract customers!" Max said unbearably.
Caroline was stunned for a moment, and shouted anxiously: "Max!"
"What, did I say something wrong?" Max said, "Listen, I came out to watch the gossip, not to watch you two go shopping in silence, understand? I don't have money to go to the cinema to watch big dramas, so I quit And the second thing is to look at the gossip between you, understand?"
"Max!" Caroline was even more embarrassed: "There is nothing between me and Austin!"
"I haven't had time to have anything!" Max complained: "Caroline, I have been with you for a year, although I don't want to admit it, but I can tell if you have a fever or a dream when you blush now, so you can't lie mine!"
"Max!" Caroline was extremely shy, she turned her head and glanced at Augustine, seeing that his original expression hadn't changed because of Max's words, the enthusiasm on his face faded a little.She said: "I liked him before, but then I don't like him anymore."
Max asked with interest: "What happened? Or what happened between the two of you?"
"It's nothing." Seeing Max's obviously disbelieving eyes, Caroline was a little annoyed. She broke the pot and said, "I confessed to him, and he gave me a penny."
"Why?" Max asked curiously, and she hypothesized teasingly: "Are you saying that your 'service' is not good?"
"Nothing happened between me and him!" Caroline took a deep breath, her face was not very good because she remembered the past.
"What does the penny represent?" Max asked persistently.
"The face value is not high." Caroline said angrily, then turned her head and glared at Augustine: "What's wrong with me?"
Augustine came back to her senses suddenly, and was puzzled by Caroline's angry expression: "What?"
Caroline was even more enraged by Augustine's wandering spirit: "I mean, what's wrong with me? You actually humiliated me with a penny!"
Augustine suddenly recalled the ins and outs of this incident. At that time, he had just taught Martin Channing the evidence. Because he didn't want Jones to guess the connection between the two, he concealed the transaction between the two by speaking harshly to Caroline.But he never thought that this incident would really hurt the princess's heart, causing her to provoke him in every possible way during the next few months of getting along, and whenever she found an opportunity, she would sneer at him.Even after he was wrongly imprisoned, he came to the prison to 'visit' him.
But thanks to Caroline's clear love and hate personality, the transaction between him and Channing was well covered up.After all, everyone knows that Martin Channing is a man who loves his daughter as much as his life. How can he still get along with him after Augustine humiliated his daughter?
But now it seems that things are not that simple. Shortly after Augustine was imprisoned, Martin Channing was imprisoned for commercial fraud and all his property was confiscated. Except for the clothes Caroline was wearing and her beloved horse chestnut, he could not bring out a piece of paper or a pen.
It is by no means just a coincidence that the two were imprisoned so close in time.But Augustine can be sure that the disguise between them is perfect, and Jones has not noticed that the evidence that makes him sleepless is in the hands of Channing, so who made Channing go to jail?Is it really just a coincidence?It seemed he was going to meet his old friend sometime.
Augustine thought about it without knowing it, and Caroline lost her mind, which made Caroline furious. She grabbed Augustine's collar and pulled her towards her. Caroline looked straight into Augustine's eyes, allowing him to see the anger in her eyes: "Now, tell me, what the hell is it that made you humiliate me in front of so many people?"
In fact, there are only two people. Augustine retorted silently, but he knew the truth that he couldn't reason with an angry woman, so he didn't say it out loud.
"Say!" Caroline gritted her teeth.
Augustine had to quickly arrange the reasons in her mind.With his mind on two things, he didn't notice how ambiguous this posture was.
"Aust?" A familiar voice with slight doubts came from not far away. After hearing this, Augustine's scalp froze, and for the first time in her life, she felt guilty.
The author has something to say: Thank you qnbj little angel for mine!

Augustine quickly pulled his collar out of Caroline's hand. He turned his head stiffly, but saw Reid and Morgan standing there looking at him. You kid!" These are big characters.
Reid obviously also felt a little surprised. Although he was confused, he still had some inexplicable joy in his heart: "Aust, why are you here?"
"Yeah, that's what I want to ask too." Morgan looked at Augustine with a teasing look in his eyes: "You're not following our prettyboy, are you?"
"Of course not." Augustine didn't want to deny it immediately, joking that he wasn't a stalker: "I'm here to apply for a job."
"But you said a few days ago that you want to study for a degree in psychology." Reid asked in puzzlement.
"Actually, I've learned those things before and don't need to learn them again. It just so happens that Jones doesn't plan to pay me any more living expenses, so I just save myself and work. You know, part-time work and part-study." Augustine lied without guilt.In fact, Jones has not given Augustine living expenses for a long time.However, before Augustine’s mother left, she transferred three properties to Augustine’s name. The rent of these three properties was Augustine’s source of income when she was a child. Later, Mrs. Jones saw that Augustine was very talented, so she decided to support him. Augustine cheated the Jones family a lot of money into stocks at that time. Because Augustine is naturally sensitive to numbers and has the talent to read people's hearts, although he can't challenge Jones now, his net worth can be regarded as the best among his peers. You don't need to work at all to complete your studies.
Reid didn't know the way, but he had an intuition that something was wrong: "But you didn't intend to work a few days ago. Besides, Pasadena is far enough from New York, how can you study while working?
"No, I'm going to take Columbia University." Augustine said, "Criminal psychology at Columbia is much better than Caltech."
"But what about your dissertation?" Reid asked. "Your dissertation received a good response after it was published. You can get a doctorate with a little preparation."
"Oh, that." Augustine was depressed about why Reid was so difficult today, and quickly made an excuse: "I will find time to go back to defend. Recently, the limelight has been too hot, so I want to avoid it for a while."
Only then did Reid put away his doubts, and he nodded in agreement.
"Wait." Max's face was very impatient, and she interjected, "Jones, do you want to treat us to dinner? Stop whining about our IQ!"
Morgan whistled, with a teasing look on his face, he hinted at Caroline and Max who were standing beside Augustine, and said with a smile, "You're lucky."
In the past, when Augustine encountered this kind of joke, she just smiled and agreed with the joke.For some reason today, I hurriedly explained as if I was afraid of being misunderstood: "No, this is my old friend."
"You have so many old friends." Morgan didn't take it seriously, he used this to tease Augustine, and now it's funny to see him explaining in a hurry.Before Augustine had always appeared in front of them with a proud, intelligent, and well-established face. Seeing his flustered appearance today, Morgan realized that the young man in front of him was as old as Reid.Thinking of Morgan, the vigilance in Morgan's heart eased a bit.
It has to be said that innocent people are more likely to be favored by others than smart people.
Reid felt a little bored in his heart, he endured it and couldn't help but said: "Aust, why don't we go together. Didn't we agree to have a meal together?"
Augustine was a little hesitant, he wanted to ask Caroline something, and he was too embarrassed to ask for a while when Reid joined in.
Reid saw the hesitation on Augustine's face and thought he was unhappy.I felt even more uncomfortable in my heart, and because I was holding my breath and didn't want to take a step back, the scene looked a little strange.
Morgan looked at Reid, feeling a little confused. Reid has always been considerate. Perhaps because of being bullied in childhood, he is always cautious in dealing with people and doing things, and is very considerate of others.It's rare to see him show his temper and not give in.
Morgan was confused and wanted to smooth things over. Max said first: "Come on, one more or one less is the same."
"Because it's not your money spent." Caroline complained.After being interrupted by someone, the resentment in her heart has subsided a little, and her face looks much better.She didn't see her aggressive appearance just now.
Morgan also wanted to find out the reason for Reid's abnormal mood and immediately agreed. Augustine sighed in her heart, she couldn't ask why today, so she just accepted it.Little did he know that his sighing expression happened to be caught by Reid, which made Reid a little more depressed.
Max didn't like Augustine's attitude as a rich man at first, and wanted to take him to the soup kitchen to play tricks on him, but seeing so many people, Max changed her mind, and she decided to have a big meal. Several people were taken to the French restaurant.
After being seated, Augustine took the menu from the waiter and handed it to Reid: "Spencer, what do you eat?"
Reid looked down at the menu, ignoring Augustine, much to his dismay. Augustine told the waiter that they need some time to order, the waiter nodded understandingly and left first.
Max looked at the atmosphere between the two, she was a little clear, she said abruptly: "I am Max Black."
"Derek Morgan."
"Caroline Channing."
"Spencer Reid."
After waiting for the answer she wanted to hear, Max slightly bent her eyes and smiled, as if she had discovered the truth. Max fiddled with his hair, looked at Augustine, and chuckled, "Reid?"
"Yeah, what's the problem?" Reid looked up at him in bewilderment.
"I'm nothing." Max said, "It's just that some people don't."
"What?" Augustine was also very puzzled.
"Nothing." M

When the matter came to an end, Augustine didn't feel happy, but felt relieved as if the task had been completed.The phone rang just in time, it was Lee's call.As if estimating the time, Augustine twitched his mouth and picked up the phone.
"Is there something wrong?" Augustine leaned back in the chair, eyes slightly closed and asked casually.
Lee's lazy tone came from the other end of the phone: "Remember? I said before that if you do something for the boss, part of the favor you owe us will be erased?"
"Yeah." Augustine responded, with some resistance in her heart: "When?"

"What are you doing there?" Augustine couldn't help asking, her heart skipped a beat.
"Boss was betrayed a few years ago and went to prison. The relevant files are sealed in the archives of the New York Police Department. He needs you to find the files and give them to him." Lee said.
Augustine didn't answer, expressing his reluctance with silence.

Although Lee spoke lightly, Augustine also understood what kind of trap was hidden behind these simple words.The person who rescued him in the first place was not a good person. Augustine vaguely felt that this person must have a huge network of connections or even a criminal group behind him, so he didn't want to get involved with them too much, and just wanted to pay back the favor.
Lee said it simply, he just said that the file was placed in the file room of the New York Police Department, but with that person's identity and background, how could the information related to him be stored in such a small file room that was loosely guarded and easy to intrude?Presumably only the archives of the CIA can be worthy of his identity.But the CIA is headquartered in Langley, Virginia, and it seems that it has nothing to do with New York, which makes Augustine wonder what this person's intentions are.In addition, Augustine was planning to leave Pasadena to go to New York to find an "old friend". The time and place coincided with the request made by that person, which made Augustine very frightened. Like a chess piece, no matter what happens, it cannot escape from his palm.
He was silent for a long time, and Lee on the other end of the phone showed enough patience. Finally, Augustine asked, "How can I, an ordinary person, get into the file room of the New York Police Department?"
Lee seemed to have guessed that Augustine would compromise, and laughed softly. Before Augustine got angry, he said: "With your current reputation, you can easily arrange a position for you with a little work. You go to the forensics department for an interview tomorrow." , they know what to do."
"Tomorrow?" Augustine frowned: "Why are you in such a hurry?"
"Based on previous experience, do you think we'll let you dawdle and waste time?" Lee asked back.
Augustine paused, then nodded without emotion: "Got it."
"I hope you can complete the task well this time." With that, Lee hung up the phone.
Augustine sat in a chair for a while, before booking a ticket to New York tonight. In fact, Augustine had nothing to do with that person, and it was okay not to agree to his request.But that person's background was not simple, and a rude refusal might have more serious consequences, Augustine couldn't afford to bet on it.In addition, there was always a voice in his heart urging him to agree to this request.After hesitating again and again, he decided to listen to the voice in his heart.After all, now we can only take one step at a time.
***
The assessment was indeed smooth. Augustine already possessed all the knowledge of forensic pathology. His professional knowledge and on-the-spot coping skills were not weak, and could even be said to be excellent. Therefore, even without that person behind the scenes, Augustine could still do it with High scores enter the forensic department.
So when he got all the relevant documents and was told that he could come to work the next day, Augustine was not surprised at all.After all, the forensics department in the United States is not as beautiful as it is described in the TV series.Let’s not talk about the equipment, just talk about the profession of coroner. Even in the busiest forensic office in the country, the chief forensic department in Washington DC, one of the five forensic doctors has not been certified by the Forensic Pathology Board.It is estimated that there are only 400 to 500 full-time forensic pathologists in the United States, and the annual death toll is about 250 million. In the case of an extreme shortage of forensic personnel, some doctors who fail the examination can still find forensic jobs, so Augustine has nothing to do with it degree and certification from the Board of Forensic Pathology, he still obtained the post of coroner by virtue of his solid knowledge reserve.However, after Augustine successfully applied for the job, his boss still kindly suggested that he should take some time to attend the assessment. Augustine responded mildly and politely, but still felt very disapproving.
In contrast, Augustine may not be able to eat for a while.
At this time, he was looking for a rental room with some luggage.Due to the tight time schedule given by that person, Augustine's schedule was greatly disrupted.He couldn't arrange everything before going to New York, so at this moment, he could only take a bank card and hold a newspaper in his hand to search for a place to stay.Following the information in the newspaper, he took the subway to a building in Brooklyn. He compared the glamorous building in the picture with the building in front of him that had peeled off the outer wall and exuded a strange smell. The corners of his mouth twitched. Without hesitation, he turned and left.
It was evening at this moment, and Augustine was a little tired after walking all day, so he casually walked into a restaurant on the side of the road to have something to eat. Augustine had just opened the door when he heard a scream, he tensed his body reflexively and prepared to attack, but saw a blond woman in khaki rushing into the kitchen with a whoosh. Augustine was taken aback for a moment. At that moment, he felt as if he had seen an old friend, but when he thought about it, he found it ridiculous. The person he knew was a rich girl, and she was enjoying afternoon tea at a coffee shop in Manhattan at the moment. How could it be possible to meet here? to her.
The other waiter in the restaurant also seemed to be frightened. With an exaggerated expression for no reason, she silently asked the old man sitting at the cashier at the door. The latter shrugged incomprehensibly. Stepping forward: "Hi, handsome guy. Who do you want to serve?"
"...What?" Hearing such a sloppy question, Augustine thought he had made a mistake. He looked around to make sure that this was a restaurant, so he received it in passing: "How do you tell the difference?"
The black-haired waiter pointed: "See? The area near the toilet and the cash register is my area, and the area near the bar and the wall is the area where the blonde woman just ran into the kitchen like a mouse... oh, forget it, I'm comforting myself. Don't worry, today is all my service area, wait a minute, it's not just today."
Augustine thought it was quite interesting. He found a seat in front of the cash register and sat down. As a result, the waiter casually handed over the menu, glanced at the sandwiches and burgers on it, and closed the menu without interest: "Give me A cup of black coffee and a sandwich."
"Okay, sandwiches and coffee." The waiter pretended to draw two strokes and suddenly patted the table: "Where do you think this is? Starbucks? We don't have black coffee here, but there are a lot of low-quality spirits. Do you want to come?" A bottle?"
"Bad quality? You're too good at selling." Augustine said with a smile.
The waiter opened his hand holding the pen, and shook it in front of Augustine: "See, is it useful for me to beautify such a place? People know that they have gone to hell as soon as they come in."
"Okay." Augustine laughed happily, which brightened his already handsome features, and he handed the menu to the waiter: "surprise me."
"I wish I could! But my suggestion to surprise you is to advise you not to eat the food here." The waiter was about to leave when he suddenly paused: "Wait, are you that Augustine Jones?"
Augustine was slightly stunned and shook his head. He didn't want to get into trouble, so he just pretended to be helpless and said, "Do I really look like him? I've been mistaken for that Mr. Jones lately, which has made me very uncomfortable recently." An Sheng. Everywhere I go, I am stopped by others."
The waiter nodded understandingly: "Some people always mistook me for Kat Dennings, so brother, I understand how you feel."
Augustine nodded understandingly.
"Max." The waiter introduced.
Augustine said casually: "Reid. Nice to meet you."
Max was really tricked by Augustine. She walked into the kitchen with the menu, looked at the nervous Caroline and said, "What's wrong with you? I didn't run as fast as you when I was chased by other people's wives. I just grabbed her He slapped her hard on the hair, and said to her righteously: 'Hey, ma'am, you didn't take care of your husband, are you okay?'." Max made a slap in the face.
Caroline didn't complain about Max's outlook on life as usual, she hesitated for a while and said, "Max, I saw Austin."

"Austin Reid?" Max waved his hands exaggeratedly: "Is that the guy who started World War II?"
"No, the cause of World War II was..."
"Stop! I know what caused World War II! Now, you tell me what happened between you and Austin Reid that made you avoid it!" Max interrupted Caroline mercilessly.
Caroline reacted belatedly: "What? Austin Reid? What are you talking about, Max!"
"I'm talking about your relationship with the man who scared you like a mouse into the kitchen." Max said impatiently.
"No, that person is Augustine Jones, who is the protagonist in the abduction case and the bone digger case that have been making a lot of noise in the news these days." Caroline said inexplicably, "You browsed his pictures for a while a few days ago. !"
"That bastard!" Max cursed in a low voice, "I really believed his nonsense!" Max slammed his fist on the pizza beside him, his face full of anger.
"Okay." Caroline didn't know what happened but she continued: "Max, I can't see him. Please, don't you like him, get him out!"
"You know what? I have a better idea." With that said, Max poured a full glass of pan water into a porcelain cup, and walked out with an uncooked pizza that had a hole in it.Facing Augustine's surprised gaze, she calmly put the things in her hands on the table, and said with a smile, "Sir, please take your time with the sandwiches and black coffee you ordered."
"..." The corners of Augustine's mouth twitched, and it took a long time to arrive: "Wow, you really surprised me." Even so, he didn't have the desire to do anything, and turned to Max and said, "Excuse me, Have I offended you?"
"No, I just think that the most suitable food for Mr. Austin Reid is naturally the 'sandwich' and 'black coffee' that are inconsistent with his usual words." Max smirked.
Augustine knew that his identity had been exposed when he heard the words, and he was not ashamed or angry: "Sorry, I just don't want to cause trouble."
"Yeah, that face of yours is a black card. Anyone who sees it can't help rushing forward to kneel and lick it." Max mocked.
Augustine frowned slightly. Although he admired women who dared to love and hate, he was limited to watching dramas. If this happened to him, it would be very troublesome: "Well, it seems that I am not welcome here." As he spoke, he took out a hundred-yuan bill and put it on the table: "I'm sorry." Then, he got up and was about to leave.
"Wait!" Caroline rushed out of the kitchen.
Augustine turned around, and when he saw Caroline, his heart skipped a beat, and a bad premonition welled up: "Caroline, why are you here?"
"Well, don't you know? My father went to prison for commercial fraud a year ago, and all my things were confiscated, only the chestnut was left." Caroline was still a little sad when she talked about this incident, but she could already face it correct.
"A year ago?" Augustine hurriedly asked, "When was a year ago?"
Caroline was a little surprised why Augustine kept asking about this, but she still replied, "Well, probably not long after you went to prison. Listen, Austin." Caroline took a deep breath: "I'm very sorry that I was in prison a year ago. Sorry for what I said to you."
Augustine didn't care to listen to what Caroline was saying. After he learned that Martin Channing was in prison, he felt an indescribable sense of absurdity: "Commercial fraud?"
"Yes." Caroline's apology was interrupted. She paused slightly and said, "I didn't expect that my father is a good man. I mean, no matter what others think of him, he is a good man in my heart."
Augustine wasn't distracted to listen to what Caroline was saying, and now his mind was full of the whereabouts of the evidence about Jones' embezzlement of public funds that had been deposited with Channing. Augustine was about to ask, but he soon noticed that this was not a good place to talk, so he suppressed the urgency in his heart and asked, "It's been a long time since Caroline, how about we have dinner together? I still have something to do." I want to ask you. When do you leave work?"
Caroline was overjoyed: "Now." She immediately took off the apron she was wearing.
"Now?" Han walked out of the lounge, frowning: "Our rest time is two o'clock! Two o'clock in the morning! And why don't I remember that you are at work?"
Max said, "Han, go back to your room to sleep now, the adults have to deal with some small things." She also took off the apron on her body.
Caroline came out with her bag and bumped into it, and she said in disbelief, "No, Max! Are you going with me?"
"Please, you're going out on a date with a handsome guy, so you're going to leave me here to rot and grow bacteria?" Max asked back, took his bag and went out.
Max took the two of them to the restaurant.Along the way, she peeked at the two behind her, hoping that they could say something to satisfy her desire to gossip.But the latter two were even more boring than "Change 4", almost didn't even say a word along the way.
Caroline was embarrassed and guilty, so she didn't say a word, while Augustine was flustered and didn't have the mood to greet.
"Please, can't you just say a few words? Don't be more boring than that idiot on the side of the road wearing a zombie costume to attract customers!" Max said unbearably.
Caroline was stunned for a moment, and shouted anxiously: "Max!"
"What, did I say something wrong?" Max said, "Listen, I came out to watch the gossip, not to watch you two go shopping in silence, understand? I don't have money to go to the cinema to watch big dramas, so I quit And the second thing is to look at the gossip between you, understand?"
"Max!" Caroline was even more embarrassed: "There is nothing between me and Austin!"
"I haven't had time to have anything!" Max complained: "Caroline, I have been with you for a year, although I don't want to admit it, but I can tell if you have a fever or a dream when you blush now, so you can't lie mine!"
"Max!" Caroline was extremely shy, she turned her head and glanced at Augustine, seeing that his original expression hadn't changed because of Max's words, the enthusiasm on his face faded a little.She said: "I liked him before, but then I don't like him anymore."
Max asked with interest: "What happened? Or what happened between the two of you?"
"It's nothing." Seeing Max's obviously disbelieving eyes, Caroline was a little annoyed. She broke the pot and said, "I confessed to him, and he gave me a penny."
"Why?" Max asked curiously, and she hypothesized teasingly: "Are you saying that your 'service' is not good?"
"Nothing happened between me and him!" Caroline took a deep breath, her face was not very good because she remembered the past.
"What does the penny represent?" Max asked persistently.
"The face value is not high." Caroline said angrily, then turned her head and glared at Augustine: "What's wrong with me?"
Augustine came back to her senses suddenly, and was puzzled by Caroline's angry expression: "What?"
Caroline was even more enraged by Augustine's wandering spirit: "I mean, what's wrong with me? You actually humiliated me with a penny!"
Augustine suddenly recalled the ins and outs of this incident. At that time, he had just taught Martin Channing the evidence. Because he didn't want Jones to guess the connection between the two, he concealed the transaction between the two by speaking harshly to Caroline.But he never thought that this incident would really hurt the princess's heart, causing her to provoke him in every possible way during the next few months of getting along, and whenever she found an opportunity, she would sneer at him.Even after he was wrongly imprisoned, he came to the prison to 'visit' him.
But thanks to Caroline's clear love and hate personality, the transaction between him and Channing was well covered up.After all, everyone knows that Martin Channing is a man who loves his daughter as much as his life. How can he still get along with him after Augustine humiliated his daughter?
But now it seems that things are not that simple. Shortly after Augustine was imprisoned, Martin Channing was imprisoned for commercial fraud and all his property was confiscated. Except for the clothes Caroline was wearing and her beloved horse chestnut, he could not bring out a piece of paper or a pen.
It is by no means just a coincidence that the two were imprisoned so close in time.But Augustine can be sure that the disguise between them is perfect, and Jones has not noticed that the evidence that makes him sleepless is in the hands of Channing, so who made Channing go to jail?Is it really just a coincidence?It seemed he was going to meet his old friend sometime.
Augustine thought about it without knowing it, and Caroline lost her mind, which made Caroline furious. She grabbed Augustine's collar and pulled her towards her. Caroline looked straight into Augustine's eyes, allowing him to see the anger in her eyes: "Now, tell me, what the hell is it that made you humiliate me in front of so many people?"
In fact, there are only two people. Augustine retorted silently, but he knew the truth that he couldn't reason with an angry woman, so he didn't say it out loud.
"Say!" Caroline gritted her teeth.
Augustine had to quickly arrange the reasons in her mind.With his mind on two things, he didn't notice how ambiguous this posture was.
"Aust?" A familiar voice with slight doubts came from not far away. After hearing this, Augustine's scalp froze, and for the first time in her life, she felt guilty.

Augustine quickly pulled his collar out of Caroline's hand. He turned his head stiffly, but saw Reid and Morgan standing there looking at him. You kid!" These are big characters.
Reid obviously also felt a little surprised. Although he was confused, he still had some inexplicable joy in his heart: "Aust, why are you here?"
"Yeah, that's what I want to ask too." Morgan looked at Augustine with a teasing look in his eyes: "You're not following our prettyboy, are you?"
"Of course not." Augustine didn't want to deny it immediately, joking that he wasn't a stalker: "I'm here to apply for a job."
"But you said a few days ago that you want to study for a degree in psychology." Reid asked in puzzlement.
"Actually, I've learned those things before and don't need to learn them again. It just so happens that Jones doesn't plan to pay me any more living expenses, so I just save myself and work. You know, part-time work and part-study." Augustine lied without guilt.In fact, Jones has not given Augustine living expenses for a long time.However, before Augustine’s mother left, she transferred three properties to Augustine’s name. The rent of these three properties was Augustine’s source of income when she was a child. Later, Mrs. Jones saw that Augustine was very talented, so she decided to support him. Augustine cheated the Jones family a lot of money into stocks at that time. Because Augustine is naturally sensitive to numbers and has the talent to read people's hearts, although he can't challenge Jones now, his net worth can be regarded as the best among his peers. You don't need to work at all to complete your studies.
Reid didn't know the way, but he had an intuition that something was wrong: "But you didn't intend to work a few days ago. Besides, Pasadena is far enough from New York, how can you study while working?
"No, I'm going to take Columbia University." Augustine said, "Criminal psychology at Columbia is much better than Caltech."
"But what about your dissertation?" Reid asked. "Your dissertation received a good response after it was published. You can get a doctorate with a little preparation."
"Oh, that." Augustine was depressed about why Reid was so difficult today, and quickly made an excuse: "I will find time to go back to defend. Recently, the limelight has been too hot, so I want to avoid it for a while."
Only then did Reid put away his doubts, and he nodded in agreement.
"Wait." Max's face was very impatient, and she interjected, "Jones, do you want to treat us to dinner? Stop whining about our IQ!"
Morgan whistled, with a teasing look on his face, he hinted at Caroline and Max who were standing beside Augustine, and said with a smile, "You're lucky."
In the past, when Augustine encountered this kind of joke, she just smiled and agreed with the joke.For some reason today, I hurriedly explained as if I was afraid of being misunderstood: "No, this is my old friend."
"You have so many old friends." Morgan didn't take it seriously, he used this to tease Augustine, and now it's funny to see him explaining in a hurry.Before Augustine had always appeared in front of them with a proud, intelligent, and well-established face. Seeing his flustered appearance today, Morgan realized that the young man in front of him was as old as Reid.Thinking of Morgan, the vigilance in Morgan's heart eased a bit.
It has to be said that innocent people are more likely to be favored by others than smart people.
Reid felt a little bored in his heart, he endured it and couldn't help but said: "Aust, why don't we go together. Didn't we agree to have a meal together?"
Augustine was a little hesitant, he wanted to ask Caroline something, and he was too embarrassed to ask for a while when Reid joined in.
Reid saw the hesitation on Augustine's face and thought he was unhappy.I felt even more uncomfortable in my heart, and because I was holding my breath and didn't want to take a step back, the scene looked a little strange.
Morgan looked at Reid, feeling a little confused. Reid has always been considerate. Perhaps because of being bullied in childhood, he is always cautious in dealing with people and doing things, and is very considerate of others.It's rare to see him show his temper and not give in.
Morgan was confused and wanted to smooth things over. Max said first: "Come on, one more or one less is the same."
"Because it's not your money spent." Caroline complained.After being interrupted by someone, the resentment in her heart has subsided a little, and her face looks much better.She didn't see her aggressive appearance just now.
Morgan also wanted to find out the reason for Reid's abnormal mood and immediately agreed. Augustine sighed in her heart, she couldn't ask why today, so she just accepted it.Little did he know that his sighing expression happened to be caught by Reid, which made Reid a little more depressed.
Max didn't like Augustine's attitude as a rich man at first, and wanted to take him to the soup kitchen to play tricks on him, but seeing so many people, Max changed her mind, and she decided to have a big meal. Several people were taken to the French restaurant.
After being seated, Augustine took the menu from the waiter and handed it to Reid: "Spencer, what do you eat?"
Reid looked down at the menu, ignoring Augustine, much to his dismay. Augustine told the waiter that they need some time to order, the waiter nodded understandingly and left first.
Max looked at the atmosphere between the two, she was a little clear, she said abruptly: "I am Max Black."
"Derek Morgan."
"Caroline Channing."
"Spencer Reid."
After waiting for the answer she wanted to hear, Max slightly bent her eyes and smiled, as if she had discovered the truth. Max fiddled with his hair, looked at Augustine, and chuckled, "Reid?"
"Yeah, what's the problem?" Reid looked up at him in bewilderment.
"I'm nothing." Max said, "It's just that some people don't."
"What?" Augustine was also very puzzled.
"Nothing." M
